Knight's sketchbook

[Leo Ki]

I vote for the simplified hand render, also in comics it's ok to simplify hands as long as the intent is clear. Don't need to count the five fingers all the time unless it's a close up.

Intrigued by your mentioning aphantasia, I wonder if I have that. I used to think I was a visual person but the more I went the more I realized that I feel things inside rather than through the eyes - for instance a mountain peak is like lifting my arms and feeling the muscles stretch, not a conical object with an outline, to me. Do you get something like that with the needed landmarks at the detail level?
